MCQ
If the function $f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}3 x-8, & \text { if } x \leq 5 \\ 2 k, & \text { if } x>5\end{array}\right.$ is continuous, then the value of $k$ is
  • A
    $2 / 7$
  • $7 / 2$
  • C
    $3 / 7$
  • D
    $4 / 7$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$7 / 2$
$\text { : Since } f(x) \text { is continuous at } x=5 \text {, }$
$\Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow 5} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 5^{+}} f(x)=f(5)$
$\Rightarrow 3(5)-8=2 k$
$\Rightarrow 7=2 k$
$\Rightarrow k=\frac{7}{2}$
